SPOILERS***
This movie was wonderful, slightly unnerving and quite engaging up until about the point where his Laura leaves for England. After that things kind of drift a bit. Then he locks the gate, and what the hell is going on. Now I'll gladly accept the film as it is, since after the point I talk about reality really starts to blur and symbolism is more important than what is actually going on. But I just think that it could have played out so much more interestingly than how it did. The ending left me disappointed thinking of other things that could have been.... if only they hadn't thrown a little old midget woman into it. Or at least John could have drowned by the midget's hand, I would have enjoyed the closure and it would have made it somewhat happier... but even that would have left me wanting.
